Poetry
Exactly when does life start?
At the first beat of the heart?
Or the conception of a seed,
Allowing a life as to succeed.
Is it at the exit of the womb?
Starting to cry with gloom?
First time with breathing air,
Without a mother to share.
What point in time can we say,
That removes a shade of gray;
Is up to the law to say when?
So what about a doctor then?
So how can we set a time?
Abortion not to be a crime;
No one can answer to consist,
Of when does the soul exist.
It is not for man and his hand,
Rather for God to command;
We are not to put one to death,
Causing them their last breath.
